Rain in Spain !

7th Sept 2013 our 6th Grandson was due today (there is still time Jo Jo)
 
   Today the temperature is a few degrees lower then the past few weeks , we have been fortunate to have had good weather for our local fiestas.
 
Party time was good this year with plenty going on from the Caravan /  prego as our 10yr old neighbour Claudia calls the carnival procession .At the start of the week there was paella competitions, local art displays,local theatre plays, traditional dancing etc. Bull running plays a big part of the traditional fiestas with family's having their own patch/viewing platform to watch and enjoy (no bulls are hurt) 
 


 

 
Following on from the fiestas we had our daughter Heather and Chris arrive for a weeks holiday so no pots that week either ha, so we took them to the river gorge at Montenejos were we all had a lovely day and river swim.
 

 
Ok now onto today !
 

The plan was to spend the day in my studio practising ha ha instead I made a repeat tool ! I think that's what its called, anyhow it will help me to produce bowls to the same diameter / height etc
 
 

 
 Maggie was the one producing today she is making 3 single quilts for my son Richard's three boys, our grandsons will each have different colours, all will have the same design (no arguments)
 
 


Well done Maggie

  5. Hey, so many wonderful things coming out of MasBlanc. I hadn't realised Adrian had taken up pottery as a serious occupation as well as his skill with woodcarving. And those lovely quilts of Maggie's will be such a special part of all those boys' growing up......
    Missing you all over there in Spain, lolove Diana
